You’ll “Dare to Believe” when Montana-based illusionist Jay Owenhouse hits the stage at the Nampa Civic Center. His touring show is filled with large-scale tricks, including a vanishing white Bengal tiger, and people who float, get sawed in half and disappear. Owenhouse, pictured, also will attempt to break Houdini’s record for a straitjacket escape with an extra layer of danger: two metal jaws joined by a rope on fire.

7:30 p.m. Friday, June 3, Nampa Civic Center, 311 3rd St. S. $22-$59. 468-5500, nampaciviccenter.com.
